67 U.S. senators are now co-spon-sors of the Pilot's Bill of Rights 2 (reform third class medical and provide legal protections for pilots facing FAA enforcement actions). "This is certainly significant progress but it does not mean we are done," said Jim Coon, AOPA senior vice president of government affairs. "Having more than 60 co-sponsors can help ensure that if PBR2 makes it to the floor, there are enough votes to stop a filibuster and keep the process moving." There are 67 Senate and 136 House co-sponsors in support of third class medical reform.
